When to Service Your 1991 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon Cooling System

If you’re not sure what the purpose of a radiator is, it’s hard to tell when to have your Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon radiator serviced. Nonetheless, it’s vital to know what to look for. The radiator is in the cooling system of your car, and it helps your engine temperature stay within a safe range. If your radiator isn’t functioning like it’s supposed to, the engine can overheat – or worse, break down.

Keeping up with regular radiator maintenance in your 1991 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon is a huge factor in the longevity of your engine. To keep your radiator functioning, Ford recommends replacing your antifreeze or coolant at scheduled intervals but it’s also wise to keep an eye out for signs of a failing radiator. You might be driving around (or about to be stranded) with a failing radiator if you notice leaking coolant, overheating, or an illuminated low coolant dashboard light. As soon as you see one of these symptoms, come to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care for a Courtesy Check.

Questions About Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon Radiators

Wondering how to make your 1991 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon radiator last as long as possible? Read on for answers to common questions, and visit your local Firestone Complete Auto Care when your engine shows any signs of a faulty radiator.

  • Why is the coolant light on my Ford dashboard on? Your engine might be about to overheat. If your low coolant light is on, pull over in a safe area and wait for your engine temperature to go down. Once it’s safe to do so, bring your car to your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care to have the coolant system inspected.
  • What are the puddles in my driveway or garage floor? It's better to get it fixed sooner than later. Antifreeze is toxic if consumed, but its smell can attract cats and dogs. Keep your whole family safe by repairing antifreeze leaks ASAP and thoroughly hosing down your parking spot to get rid of any lingering residue on the ground.
  • When should my Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon radiator be cleaned? It could be a good idea to have your Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon radiator cleaned out a couple of times a year, maybe at the same time as a tire rotation or oil change.
  • My E-150 Econoline Club Wagon overheated! What can cause that? Your Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon engine could overheat due to low coolant, a clogged radiator, a damaged water pump, a malfunctioning cooling fan, or a faulty thermostat.
  • Why does the radiator in my E-150 Econoline Club Wagon sound like it’s rumbling or boiling? Your E-150 Econoline Club Wagon’s cooling system could contain air pockets or your radiator might be clogged. Another possibility is a faulty radiator cap, which is an easy fix!
  • Is it bad to have rust on my E-150 Econoline Club Wagon radiator? Yes. If you have rust in your Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon radiator, it could cause leaks, negatively impact cooling efficiency, and eventually lead to radiator failure. Left unaddressed, radiator rust can erode the cooling passages, creating cracks or small holes. Properly maintaining your radiator system can help stop it from rusting.
